Chapter 111 Protecting and Safeguarding

"Wow, this is really good!"

Zhang Jun savored a cola chicken wing, his face beaming with delight, praising it endlessly.

"Wow, you're such a good cook! I never knew you could cook so well."

Gao Yuanyuan rested her chin on her hand, smiling as she watched Zhang Jun devour his food. Hearing Zhang Jun's praise, she was overjoyed.

"If it's delicious, eat more!"

"Flying Seaweed?"

"What Feli Nori?"

"A single GG word —"

Zhang Jun ate the rice in his bowl in a few bites, letting out a satisfied sigh.

"After experiencing so many things, you'll find that only food brings the most frequent and stable sense of happiness. Being able to enjoy a delicious meal is a happy thing."

Gao Yuanyuan looked at Zhang Jun curiously: "When did you become a philosopher?"

"Just now—"

After Zhang Jun finished eating, Gao Yuanyuan put the food away in the kitchen, leaving the bowls there for the time being, not wanting to wash them.

Many people who enjoy cooking don't necessarily enjoy washing dishes, finding it a tedious task. Essentially, this is simply a matter of human laziness.

Since the most important part—mealtime—is already over, there's no harm in leaving these dishes and chopsticks aside.

Zhang Jun and Gao Yuanyuan slumped together on the sofa. There were no outsiders around, so they didn't need to constantly worry about their appearance and could relax.

Gao Yuanyuan felt a sense of security as she felt Zhang Jun's embrace and his strong heartbeat.

Zhang Jun stroked Gao Yuanyuan's hair and inquired about her career: "Your recent movie is doing well; I see it's already grossed over 20 million."

Zhang Jun is referring to the movie "A Perfect Match" starring her and Hong Kong actor Shawn Yue, which was released on January 9th and has already grossed over 20 million at the box office.

Gao Yuanyuan looked up, and her head bumped right into Zhang Jun's chin.

"I have to thank you for this. If you hadn't promoted me and made me famous, I probably wouldn't have such a strong appeal."

That's true. Since the huge success of "About Time", Gao Yuanyuan has become a national goddess with her role as Su Man.

Gao Yuanyuan has been listed in several online rankings of the most beautiful women in the entertainment industry, and she has consistently ranked in the top three.

She is certainly beautiful, but it must be said that the role she played greatly enhanced her appearance.

Zhang Jun gently kissed her forehead, then smiled and said, "No need to thank me, this is all thanks to your own hard work, especially in that area."

Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes at Zhang Jun: "You jerk, I'm talking to you about serious matters, can't you be serious for once?"

"I'm very serious!"

Zhang Jun expressed his innocence: "You're clearly misunderstanding."

"I'm not talking to you anymore!"

Gao Yuanyuan paused for a moment, then said, "I feel that I still have some shortcomings. I plan to participate in a few stage plays recently to hone my skills."

Zhang Jun nodded in support: "That's a good idea. If you want to reflect and learn, it's a good thing."

Gao Yuanyuan was overjoyed to receive Zhang Jun's support: "I knew you would support me—"

Gao Yuanyuan is different from Fan Bingbing and Yang Mi, the latter two being very career-oriented. If you asked them to take a break, they would most likely be unwilling.

Gao Yuanyuan is different; she isn't particularly career-driven, but she values ​​men quite a lot.

So when Fan Bingbing and Yang Mi forgot about Zhang Jun because of work, Gao Yuanyuan remembered him and went to learn cooking skills to please him.

Of course, this isn't to say that Fan Bingbing and Yang Mi are bad. The three women have different styles, and Zhang Jun likes them all.

After the start of the new semester at the Beijing Film Academy, Yang Mi followed Zhang Jun's instructions and returned to school to continue her acting studies. Yang Mi was very obedient and didn't become arrogant despite becoming a film's leading lady.

Zhang Jun was very satisfied with this, saying that no matter what level they were at, as long as they were willing to listen to advice, it meant there was hope.

Fan Bingbing is extremely busy, as her contract with Huayi Brothers expires in July. During this period, she will be busy with film promotions, filming, and attending commercial events.

Huayi Brothers clearly wants to squeeze as much value out of Fan Bingbing as possible before she leaves.

However, Fan Bingbing didn't complain even during her phone call with Zhang Jun. Despite her fox-like appearance, this woman possesses a remarkable resilience.

However, there was one thing that Zhang Jun helped her solve.

Here's what happened: Fan Bingbing had previously filmed several movies in Hong Kong, including the upcoming "Flash Point." A production company in Hong Kong, attracted by her beauty, offered her a film with explicit content.

Those who know about these kinds of explicit films understand; many Hong Kong stars have made them before.

The production company even went so far as to claim that it would win international awards, including Cannes and the Oscars.

But Fan Bingbing rejected the script as soon as she saw it.

She had already turned down the film "Apple" because she was worried that Zhang Jun would have reservations, so it was naturally impossible for her to accept this film, which was even more explicit than "Apple".

However, Huayi Brothers clearly doesn't think that way.

Fan Bingbing isn't afraid of public entertainment, after all, she's been in this industry for so long and is well-prepared for it.

But she was worried about what Zhang Jun would think if he saw the film.

Although Zhang Jun said he didn't care and that their relationship was just temporary partnership, he wouldn't restrict his freedom.

However, judging from Zhang Jun's domineering behavior during their lovemaking, this man is a man of his word with an extremely strong possessive desire.

If you do something without his permission, he will definitely dislike you in the end.

Actually, it's not a big deal if she's disgusted with him, since Fan Bingbing has already carved out her own path. But she believes that following Zhang Jun will make it easier to realize her ambitions.

This isn't love; it's the naked pursuit of profit in the entertainment industry. Of course, Fan Bingbing also invested a little bit of emotion in this pursuit of profit.

So when she learned that Huayi Brothers was forcing her to take the role, Fan Bingbing immediately called Zhang Jun, who then called CEO Wang.

After testing each other for a while, Zhang Jun directly stated his purpose: "President Wang, your company is very unethical. I heard that you actually accept S-rated films for your artists."

What's the point of this? Are we skirting the edge of the law?

The king was stunned. He didn't know about this and quickly asked Zhang Jun what was going on.

After hearing Zhang Jun's explanation, the King felt helpless. It was yet another good deed that his foolish younger brother had done behind his back.

You said you'd do it, but you didn't even pick and choose who to do it with. You knew perfectly well that Fan Bingbing and Zhang Jun's relationship was ambiguous, yet you still forced her to go.

It would be one thing if Fan Bingbing was unhappy, after all, she's just a minor celebrity. But when she told Zhang Jun about it, Zhang Jun was unhappy.

Wang Zong has been working on building momentum for Huayi Brothers' IPO, and Zhang Jun is a key figure in this effort.

It's not about poaching Zhang Jun, but rather that Huayi Brothers would invest in Zhang Jun's films. That way, when they go public, their slogan will be more palatable.

Before I could even discuss any investment intentions, you turned around and offended them. How could they possibly let us invest?

The boss immediately assured him, "Don't worry, Director Zhang, I will definitely handle this matter seriously."

As for that film, none of the artists under Huayi Brothers will participate in such a film.

"I hope so!"

After Zhang Jun finished speaking, he hung up the phone and looked at Fan Pangbing: "Don't worry, Boss Wang said he'll handle it."

Fan Pangbing was relieved: "Thank you, Zhang Jun, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."

Zhang Jun's expression was very serious: "There's nothing difficult about it. It's true that artists and management companies have a partnership, but artists can refuse unreasonable demands from the company."

That's one way of putting it.

Fan Bingbing said helplessly, "But it's so difficult to do that, I'm afraid not many artists have the guts."

O

Zhang Jun nodded: "That's true. Compared to worrying about these issues, most artists are probably more concerned about how to get resources!"

He looked into Fan Bingbing's eyes: "But you're different. As long as you stay with me for a day, I won't let you be harassed by any unspoken rules."

"Um!"

Fan Pangbing looked at Zhang Jun's handsome and determined face, nodded gently, and then leaned against Zhang Jun's chest, feeling his warmth.

Even though this man was a year younger than her, for some reason, Fan Bingbing felt very safe and secure leaning against him.

On the other side, after ending his call with Zhang Jun, Boss Wang immediately called Boss Xiao Wang over and gave him a thorough dressing-down.

"You idiot! At this crucial time when the company is preparing for its IPO, you actually let our artists take on adult films. Are you trying to get the company noticed by the relevant authorities and prevent it from going public?"

Young Master Wang looked aggrieved: "Brother, I didn't—"

Before he could even begin to explain, he was interrupted by the furious CEO: "Nonsense! They've already called me!"

Don't you think about it? Fan Bingbing is gone, and you still give her this kind of job.

Don't you know whose woman she is? Are you deliberately trying to cause us trouble?

Mr. Wang was taken aback and quickly asked, "Zhang Jun called?"

"What do you think!" the king said irritably.

After a moment of contemplation, Mr. Wang said, "Actually, this is an opportunity. We can take this chance to make our demands. He wants to protect his woman, so he has to pay some price, right?"

The boss got even angrier: "Get out, get out! I'm telling you, don't mess with Fan Bingbing, and don't have any contact with Zhang Jun."

If I hear anything like that again, you can just stay home!

Mr. Wang left feeling very aggrieved, and when he returned to his office, he smashed his beloved teacup.

His older brother had never spoken to him in such a stern tone before. Although he knew his older brother was right, Xiao Wang still felt uncomfortable.

Regarding Fan Bingbing, he subconsciously thought that Fan Bingbing was just a female star with some fame, and that it was no big deal to teach her a lesson.

But to my surprise, they were not only unafraid but also dared to file a complaint.

After calming down, CEO Wang realized that with Zhang Jun protecting Fan Bingbing, he couldn't go too far. After all, this concerned the company's overall strategy, and he couldn't afford to offend Zhang Jun at this crucial juncture.

After figuring it out, Mr. Wang withdrew from the project and even personally called Zhang Jun to clarify the "misunderstanding."
